This work provides a systematic error analysis for IBIMs on uniform Cartesian grids for boundaries with different degree of regularities. We first show that the quadrature error gains an addition order of $\\frac{d-1}{2}$ from the curvature for a strongly convex smooth boundary due to the ``randomness'' in the signed distances. This gain is discounted for degenerated convex surfaces. We then extend the error estimate to general boundaries under some special circumstances, including how quadrature error depends on the boundary's local geometry relative to the underlying grid. Bounds on the variance of the quadrature error under random shifts and rotations of the lattices are also derived.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.07722v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2312.07722v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"error-analysis-for-the-implicit-boundary","repo_url":"https://github.com/lowrank/ibim-error-analysis-experiments","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
